This 1995 Ferrari 355 Spider is equipped with a six-speed manual gearbox and shows just 19,505 miles. Finished in Rosso Corsa over tan leather, this car was reportedly sold new in California and has remained in the state for much of its life. Cosmetic work performed within the past year included recovering the black soft top and refinishing the 18″ factory alloys. In August 2017, the 3.5-liter V8 was removed for a service, which consisted of a partial re-seal, timing belt replacement, fluid change, tune-up, and more as outlined below. The seller acquired this F355 about a year ago and recently had a smog test performed. The car is now being offered in Marina Del Ray, California with an accident-free Carfax, records from recent service, the original manuals/tools/accessories, two factory keys, and a clear Pennsylvania title in the name of the seller’s company.

Two areas on the Rosso Corsa exterior have been refinished within the past year, including a spot on the front hood and around the center badge. The passenger-side rear corner panel was also partially refinished in response to a scratch. Stone chips on the front bumper have been touched-up, and a few small bubbles are present in the black trim on the side mirror and upper rear door trim.

Production of the 355 ran from 1994 to 1999, during which time approximately 2,690 Spiders left the factory with a six-speed manual gearbox. The power convertible top was recovered in March 2018 and is said to remain in good working order. The 18” factory alloys were professionally refinished in 2017 and wear Michelin tires. Both CV axles were repacked and fitted with replacement boots during the most recent service.

The upper portion of the dash, including the instrument surround, was recovered in the correct black leather last year to correct shrinkage in the original material. A road trip from LA to Scottsdale, Arizona and back was completed following the recent maintenance, which included servicing the A/C. The sticky dash components were rectified under previous ownership, and the seller reports that the climate control works as intended. 19,505 miles are shown on the odometer and an Alpine stereo comes installed.

The mid-mounted dry-sump 3.5-liter V8 utilizes five valves per-cylinder and 180-degree crank. An $11,818 engine-out service performed in August 2017 included a new timing belt and a tune-up with new Ferrari plug wires, as well as replacement coolant hoses, accessory belts, and fluids. The invoice from this service has been included in the gallery below, along with results from a recent compression test, receipt from the 2018 smog test, and service records from 2011.
